Hello Visman,

I'm really sorry to post this here, perhaps it's the wrong topic but i haven't found any other topic about notifybb extension !

I've got a little problem : the extension works perfectly if one of the users has his profile with english as configured language. smile

But if the member has selected an other language for his profile, he doesn't receive the mail notifications. (for the notification directly on board, it's OK).

I've done the files languages for french in the lang directory of the plugin (bbnotify.php and the mail template) and uploaded on my board (in the lang folder, and in the plugin folder, subdirectories lang) but it's unsuccessful. Any help ?

And once again, thanks for your work. I'm discovering all your contributions for PunBB, it's really great !

Visman : Thank you so much !!!!

All works perfectly on Punbb 1.4.

Here's what i did :

I've uploaded my old db, without any modifications (even on charset or collations)
I used the script manually, table by table, as described by ml here.
I've launched the script of punbb 1.4 db_update.php whitout selecting "Enable conversation" and with  ISO-8859-15 as native DB status.
After conversion all is OK : posts, nicknames, topic titles, etc. are not truncated anymore ; all forums functions are up and OK.

A real big thanks, merci de tout cœur smile

Thanks a lot, it's near to perfect for read only smile

In read only :

Last mistake : topic titles are truncated when a special character is in the title.

For example : "Qu'écoutez-vous en ce moment" is now "Qu'".
I had a look in the DB and all the titles have been truncated in the DB itself, not only in the client view.

Except that, all is OK.

But in writting mode, it isn't so good :

I've got an error when i try to post :

"Sorry! The page could not be loaded.

This is probably a temporary error. Just refresh the page and retry. If problem continues, please check back in 5-10 minutes."

If i go back on the board, the new post or the new topic are available (but when i use special characters as "à" "&" "œ" etc., the messages/posts are truncated.

See here (new install)

I've checked the files permissions, all seems to be OK.
I've no idea where to check for a normal behavior in writting mode (new posts and no problemes with characters set).

If you have any idea ?
If not nevermind, you've helped me a lot with your previous post !

Merci beaucoup smile

edit :

I've made more test about special characters :

If i took my native base of my board in 1.2.15 and convert it with db_update.php, all data are truncated if there is a special character as "à" "œ" "&" etc.
If i took the db after i've change the collations to utf-8 (using phpmyadmin to do so) and after use db_update.php to update it. In this case, only the post titles and nicknames/usernames are truncated.

I think this script could be my solution, but it is not more available sad

Hello people,

First of all, thank you for this forum and to read my request.
I apologize for the possible english mistakes, this is not my native language, i'm French (it also happens to good people big_smile).

Also, I'm really sorry to bring back this section from the dead, but i need help. I hope i don't post in the bad section... If so, please apologize me.

Here's my case :

I have an old PunBB, 1.2.15 version related to a website, with a long story (10 years up), a community involved, etc. You can find it here.

For many reason, i have to migrate all my hosting (website + board) on a new server, with MySQL 5.6.
So i've installed a new board, but i'd like to keep archives from the old one, in a read only mode.
You can see this installation here (not in read only for the moment)

I had multiple problems, but i have corrected many of them. However, i'm stuck with 2 lasts bugs related to charset (i believe so).

The first one is about special characters, like é, è, ê, à, etc. When they came from my DB, all these characters appears like this : �
The second one is the post message doesn't appears when you consult a topic. The message block is empty. But i've noticed the message appears when i do a search. You can see example here : empty topic & search results.

So it means that the problem for the "empty message" does not provide from my DB.

I've been on many websites, i've been reading a lot, but i don't find the solution.

I've converted all my files in UTF-8 Format.
I've fully converted my DataBase in utf8_general_mysql500_ci for the "collations" parameter.
I've added <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> in all my files.
And many other stuffs stuffs to resolve previous problems (before these actions, all the messages were truncated after the first special character as "é" "à" "œ", etc.)

Does any one of you has an idea to help me ?
